Introducing the Peugeot 504, the mid-size car that’s synonymous with reliability and comfort. Known for its robust build and ease of handling, the 504 became a favorite not just for families, but also for those who demanded performance on challenging road conditions. Whether you're cruising on smooth highways or tackling gravel roads in New Zealand's stunning landscapes, the 504 provides a truly memorable driving experience.
Rust is a common problem, especially in coastal areas. Suspension wear and tear are also common, particularly in the rear. Engine issues can arise with age.
Check carefully for rust in the bodywork, especially around the sills, floor pans, and wheel arches. Inspect the suspension components for wear. Ensure the brakes are functioning effectively. All lights must be in good working order.
The practicality of the Peugeot 504 is evident in its versatile design, available as both a sedan and a station wagon. Its robust suspension and powerful engine are tailor-made for New Zealand's diverse driving landscapes. However, as with any classic vehicle, regular maintenance is key to keeping your 504 in top condition. Common parts requiring attention include the cooling system components, such as the water pump, thermostat, and radiator, which should be inspected around 150,000 km to prevent overheating issues. Additionally, brake components often need replacement given the wear and tear they experience.
